The chatbot uses a combination of natural language processing (NLP) and document indexing to provide accurate and relevant responses to user queries. ## Prerequisites To run this chatbot, you will need to have the following installed on your system: - Python 3.7 or later - Gradio - LangChain - EdgeGPT - HuggingFace transformers ## Installation To install the necessary packages, you can use pip: ``` pip install gradio langchain edgegpt transformers ``` You will also need to download the Mercedes-Benz owner's manual data files and store them in the `data` directory. The files should be organized in subdirectories named after the vehicle model (e.g., `s-class-manual` and `eqe-manual`). ## Usage To start the chatbot, you can run the `start_ui()` function in the `app.py` file: ``` python app.py ``` This will launch a Gradio interface that allows users to enter a question, select the vehicle model (S-Class or EQE), specify whether to create a new chatbot instance or reuse an existing one, and adjust the number of documents to retrieve from the database. When the user submits a question, the chatbot retrieves the most relevant excerpts from the owner's manual and uses them to generate a response. The response is then displayed in the Gradio interface.
